IntegratedGaussianPRF#

class photutils.psf.IntegratedGaussianPRF(*, flux=1, x_0=0, y_0=0, sigma=1, bbox_factor=5.5, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: CircularGaussianSigmaPRF

Deprecated since version 2.0.0: The IntegratedGaussianPRF class is deprecated and may be removed in a future version. Use CircularGaussianSigmaPRF or CircularGaussianPRF instead.

A circular 2D Gaussian PSF model integrated over pixels.

This model is evaluated by integrating the 2D Gaussian over the input coordinate pixels, and is equivalent to assuming the PSF is 2D Gaussian at a sub-pixel level. Because it is integrated over pixels, this model is considered a PRF instead of a PSF.

The Gaussian is normalized such that the analytical integral over the entire 2D plane is equal to the total flux.

This model is equivalent to CircularGaussianPRF, but it is parameterized in terms of the standard deviation (sigma) instead of the full width at half maximum (FWHM).

Parameters:
fluxfloat, optional

Total integrated flux over the entire PSF.

x_0float, optional

Position of the peak in x direction.

y_0float, optional

Position of the peak in y direction.

sigmafloat, optional

Width of the Gaussian PSF.

bbox_factorfloat, optional

The multiple of the standard deviation (sigma) used to define the bounding box limits.

**kwargsdict, optional

Additional optional keyword arguments to be passed to the astropy.modeling.Model parent class.

Notes

The circular Gaussian function is defined as:

\[f(x, y) = \frac{F}{4} \left[ {\rm erf} \left(\frac{x - x_0 + 0.5} {\sqrt{2} \sigma} \right) - {\rm erf} \left(\frac{x - x_0 - 0.5} {\sqrt{2} \sigma} \right) \right] \left[ {\rm erf} \left(\frac{y - y_0 + 0.5} {\sqrt{2} \sigma} \right) - {\rm erf} \left(\frac{y - y_0 - 0.5} {\sqrt{2} \sigma} \right) \right]\]

where \(F\) is the total integrated flux, \((x_{0}, y_{0})\) is the position of the peak, \(\sigma\) is the standard deviation of the Gaussian, and \({\rm erf}\) denotes the error function.

The model is normalized such that:

\[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x, y) \,dx \,dy = F\]

Attributes Documentation

amplitude#

The peak amplitude of the Gaussian.

bbox_with_units#
bounding_box#

A tuple of length n_inputs defining the bounding box limits, or raise NotImplementedError for no bounding_box.

The default limits are given by a bounding_box property or method defined in the class body of a specific model. If not defined then this property just raises NotImplementedError by default (but may be assigned a custom value by a user). bounding_box can be set manually to an array-like object of shape (model.n_inputs, 2). For further usage, see Efficient Model Rendering with Bounding Boxes

The limits are ordered according to the numpy 'C' indexing convention, and are the reverse of the model input order, e.g. for inputs ('x', 'y', 'z'), bounding_box is defined:

  • for 1D: (x_low, x_high)

  • for 2D: ((y_low, y_high), (x_low, x_high))

  • for 3D: ((z_low, z_high), (y_low, y_high), (x_low, x_high))

Examples

Setting the bounding_box limits for a 1D and 2D model:

>>> from astropy.modeling.models import Gaussian1D, Gaussian2D
>>> model_1d = Gaussian1D()
>>> model_2d = Gaussian2D(x_stddev=1, y_stddev=1)
>>> model_1d.bounding_box = (-5, 5)
>>> model_2d.bounding_box = ((-6, 6), (-5, 5))

Setting the bounding_box limits for a user-defined 3D custom_model:

>>> from astropy.modeling.models import custom_model
>>> def const3d(x, y, z, amp=1):
...    return amp
...
>>> Const3D = custom_model(const3d)
>>> model_3d = Const3D()
>>> model_3d.bounding_box = ((-6, 6), (-5, 5), (-4, 4))

To reset bounding_box to its default limits just delete the user-defined value–this will reset it back to the default defined on the class:

>>> del model_1d.bounding_box

To disable the bounding box entirely (including the default), set bounding_box to None:

>>> model_1d.bounding_box = None
>>> model_1d.bounding_box  
Traceback (most recent call last):
NotImplementedError: No bounding box is defined for this model
(note: the bounding box was explicitly disabled for this model;
use `del model.bounding_box` to restore the default bounding box,
if one is defined for this model).
bounds#

A dict mapping parameter names to their upper and lower bounds as (min, max) tuples or [min, max] lists.

col_fit_deriv = True#
cov_matrix#

Fitter should set covariance matrix, if available.

eqcons#

List of parameter equality constraints.

fit_deriv = None#

Function (similar to the model’s evaluate) to compute the derivatives of the model with respect to its parameters, for use by fitting algorithms. In other words, this computes the Jacobian matrix with respect to the model’s parameters.

fittable = True#
fixed#

A dict mapping parameter names to their fixed constraint.

flux = Parameter('flux', value=1.0)#
fwhm#

Gaussian FWHM.

has_user_bounding_box#

A flag indicating whether or not a custom bounding_box has been assigned to this model by a user, via assignment to model.bounding_box.

has_user_inverse#

A flag indicating whether or not a custom inverse model has been assigned to this model by a user, via assignment to model.inverse.

ineqcons#

List of parameter inequality constraints.

input_units#

The input units of the model.

input_units_allow_dimensionless#

Allow dimensionless input (and corresponding output). If this is True, input values to evaluate will gain the units specified in input_units. If this is a dictionary then it should map input name to a bool to allow dimensionless numbers for that input. Only has an effect if input_units is defined.

input_units_equivalencies = None#
input_units_strict#

Enforce strict units on inputs to evaluate. If this is set to True, input values to evaluate will be in the exact units specified by input_units. If the input quantities are convertible to input_units, they are converted. If this is a dictionary then it should map input name to a bool to set strict input units for that parameter.

inputs#
inverse#

Returns a new Model instance which performs the inverse transform, if an analytic inverse is defined for this model.

Even on models that don’t have an inverse defined, this property can be set with a manually-defined inverse, such a pre-computed or experimentally determined inverse (often given as a PolynomialModel, but not by requirement).

A custom inverse can be deleted with del model.inverse. In this case the model’s inverse is reset to its default, if a default exists (otherwise the default is to raise NotImplementedError).

Note to authors of Model subclasses: To define an inverse for a model simply override this property to return the appropriate model representing the inverse. The machinery that will make the inverse manually-overridable is added automatically by the base class.

linear = False#
meta = None#

A dict-like object to store optional information.

model_constraints = ('eqcons', 'ineqcons')#

Primarily for informational purposes, these are the types of constraints that constrain model evaluation.

model_set_axis#

The index of the model set axis–that is the axis of a parameter array that pertains to which model a parameter value pertains to–as specified when the model was initialized.

See the documentation on Model Sets for more details.

n_inputs = 2#

The number of inputs.

n_outputs = 1#

The number of outputs.

n_submodels#

Return the number of components in a single model, which is obviously 1.

name#

User-provided name for this model instance.

outputs#
param_names = ('flux', 'x_0', 'y_0', 'sigma')#

Names of the parameters that describe models of this type.

The parameters in this tuple are in the same order they should be passed in when initializing a model of a specific type. Some types of models, such as polynomial models, have a different number of parameters depending on some other property of the model, such as the degree.

When defining a custom model class the value of this attribute is automatically set by the Parameter attributes defined in the class body.

param_sets#

Return parameters as a pset.

This is a list with one item per parameter set, which is an array of that parameter’s values across all parameter sets, with the last axis associated with the parameter set.

parameter_constraints = ('fixed', 'tied', 'bounds')#

Primarily for informational purposes, these are the types of constraints that can be set on a model’s parameters.

parameters#

A flattened array of all parameter values in all parameter sets.

Fittable parameters maintain this list and fitters modify it.

return_units#

This property is used to indicate what units or sets of units the output of evaluate should be in, and returns a dictionary mapping outputs to units (or None if any units are accepted).

Model sub-classes can also use function annotations in evaluate to indicate valid output units, in which case this property should not be overridden since it will return the return units based on the annotations.

separable#

A flag indicating whether a model is separable.

sigma = Parameter('sigma', value=1.0, fixed=True, bounds=(1.1754943508222875e-38, None))#
standard_broadcasting = True#
stds#

Standard deviation of parameters, if covariance matrix is available.

sync_constraints#

This is a boolean property that indicates whether or not accessing constraints automatically check the constituent models current values. It defaults to True on creation of a model, but for fitting purposes it should be set to False for performance reasons.

tied#

A dict mapping parameter names to their tied constraint.

uses_quantity#

True if this model has been created with Quantity objects or if there are no parameters.

This can be used to determine if this model should be evaluated with Quantity or regular floats.

x_0 = Parameter('x_0', value=0.0)#
y_0 = Parameter('y_0', value=0.0)#

Methods Documentation

__call__(*inputs, model_set_axis=None, with_bounding_box=False, fill_value=nan, equivalencies=None, inputs_map=None, **new_inputs)#

Evaluate this model using the given input(s) and the parameter values that were specified when the model was instantiated.

coerce_units(input_units=None, return_units=None, input_units_equivalencies=None, input_units_allow_dimensionless=False)#

Attach units to this (unitless) model.

Parameters:
input_unitsdict or tuple, optional

Input units to attach. If dict, each key is the name of a model input, and the value is the unit to attach. If tuple, the elements are units to attach in order corresponding to Model.inputs.

return_unitsdict or tuple, optional

input_units_equivalenciesdict, optional

Default equivalencies to apply to input values. If set, this should be a dictionary where each key is a string that corresponds to one of the model inputs.

input_units_allow_dimensionlessbool or dict, optional

Allow dimensionless input. If this is True, input values to evaluate will gain the units specified in input_units. If this is a dictionary then it should map input name to a bool to allow dimensionless numbers for that input.

Returns:
CompoundModel

A CompoundModel composed of the current model plus UnitsMapping model(s) that attach the units.

Raises:
ValueError

If the current model already has units.

Examples

Wrapping a unitless model to require and convert units:

>>> from astropy.modeling.models import Polynomial1D
>>> from astropy import units as u
>>> poly = Polynomial1D(1, c0=1, c1=2)
>>> model = poly.coerce_units((u.m,), (u.s,))
>>> model(u.Quantity(10, u.m))  
<Quantity 21. s>
>>> model(u.Quantity(1000, u.cm))  
<Quantity 21. s>
>>> model(u.Quantity(10, u.cm))  
<Quantity 1.2 s>

Wrapping a unitless model but still permitting unitless input:

>>> from astropy.modeling.models import Polynomial1D
>>> from astropy import units as u
>>> poly = Polynomial1D(1, c0=1, c1=2)
>>> model = poly.coerce_units((u.m,), (u.s,), input_units_allow_dimensionless=True)
>>> model(u.Quantity(10, u.m))  
<Quantity 21. s>
>>> model(10)  
<Quantity 21. s>
copy()#

Return a copy of this model.

Uses a deep copy so that all model attributes, including parameter values, are copied as well.

deepcopy()#

Return a deep copy of this model.

evaluate(x, y, flux, x_0, y_0, sigma)#

Calculate the value of the 2D Gaussian model at the input coordinates for the given model parameters.

Parameters:
x, yfloat or array_like

The coordinates at which to evaluate the model.

fluxfloat

The total flux of the star.

x_0, y_0float

The position of the star.

sigmafloat

The width of the Gaussian PRF.

Returns:
evaluated_modelndarray

The evaluated model.

get_bounding_box(with_bbox=True)#

Return the bounding_box of a model if it exists or None otherwise.

Parameters:
with_bbox

The value of the with_bounding_box keyword argument when calling the model. Default is True for usage when looking up the model’s bounding_box without risk of error.

has_inverse()#

Returns True if the model has an analytic or user inverse defined.

input_shape(inputs)#

Get input shape for bounding_box evaluation.

output_units(**kwargs)#

Return a dictionary of output units for this model given a dictionary of fitting inputs and outputs.

The input and output Quantity objects should be given as keyword arguments.

Notes

This method is needed in order to be able to fit models with units in the parameters, since we need to temporarily strip away the units from the model during the fitting (which might be done by e.g. scipy functions).

This method will force extra model evaluations, which maybe computationally expensive. To avoid this, one can add a return_units property to the model, see return_units.

prepare_inputs(*inputs, model_set_axis=None, equivalencies=None, **kwargs)#

This method is used in __call__ to ensure that all the inputs to the model can be broadcast into compatible shapes (if one or both of them are input as arrays), particularly if there are more than one parameter sets. This also makes sure that (if applicable) the units of the input will be compatible with the evaluate method.

prepare_outputs(broadcasted_shapes, *outputs, **kwargs)#
classmethod rename(name=None, inputs=None, outputs=None)#

Return a copy of this model with a new name.

render(out=None, coords=None)#

Evaluate a model at fixed positions, respecting the bounding_box.

The key difference relative to evaluating the model directly is that this method is limited to a bounding box if the Model.bounding_box attribute is set.

Parameters:
outnumpy.ndarray, optional

An array that the evaluated model will be added to. If this is not given (or given as None), a new array will be created.

coordsarray-like, optional

An array to be used to translate from the model’s input coordinates to the out array. It should have the property that self(coords) yields the same shape as out. If out is not specified, coords will be used to determine the shape of the returned array. If this is not provided (or None), the model will be evaluated on a grid determined by Model.bounding_box.

Returns:
outnumpy.ndarray

The model added to out if out is not None, or else a new array from evaluating the model over coords. If out and coords are both None, the returned array is limited to the Model.bounding_box limits. If Model.bounding_box is None, arr or coords must be passed.

Raises:
ValueError

If coords are not given and the Model.bounding_box of this model is not set.

set_slice_args(*args)#
strip_units_from_tree()#
sum_of_implicit_terms(*args, **kwargs)#

Evaluate the sum of any implicit model terms on some input variables. This includes any fixed terms used in evaluating a linear model that do not have corresponding parameters exposed to the user. The prototypical case is astropy.modeling.functional_models.Shift, which corresponds to a function y = a + bx, where b=1 is intrinsically fixed by the type of model, such that sum_of_implicit_terms(x) == x. This method is needed by linear fitters to correct the dependent variable for the implicit term(s) when solving for the remaining terms (ie. a = y - bx).

with_units_from_data(**kwargs)#

Return an instance of the model which has units for which the parameter values are compatible with the data units specified.

The input and output Quantity objects should be given as keyword arguments.

Notes

This method is needed in order to be able to fit models with units in the parameters, since we need to temporarily strip away the units from the model during the fitting (which might be done by e.g. scipy functions).

The units that the parameters will gain are not necessarily the units of the input data, but are derived from them. Model subclasses that want fitting to work in the presence of quantities need to define a _parameter_units_for_data_units method that takes the input and output units (as two dictionaries) and returns a dictionary giving the target units for each parameter.

without_units_for_data(**kwargs)#

Return an instance of the model for which the parameter values have been converted to the right units for the data, then the units have been stripped away.

The input and output Quantity objects should be given as keyword arguments.
